These past two weekends, we have had opportunity for fellowship with folks within the Prayer League community. Both weekends saw us at camps. Last weekend, we traveled to Okoboji Lutheran Bible Camp in Iowa for the annual Okoboji mission event and heard stories from our fellow workers serving throughout the world. It was a generationally diverse group that had gathered. You could say we had a happy time, as these kids so adorably tell …
Did you see Aelah asking for more at the end. You can now hear her say every so often, when she’s thinking of this song, “More. Jesus.” Too, too cute. May this be the desire of us all.
This past weekend was spent at Mount Carmel in Alexandria, MN with a number of other individuals from our home office staff. Our Pastor was also able to attend and lead us through a look at discipleship as laid out in the book of Matthew. We investigated what it means to live a life worthy of the calling and how, in baptism, we are called to, commissioned for, and coached in the way of the cross. The work of our Triune God – Father, Son, Spirit – is evidenced in the baptism of Jesus and, as His followers, we enter into the same waters that mark us with an identity and direct us in our Kingdom work.
